I've just had French visitors - lst night we had.
Haggis and Garlic 'won tons' with Whisky sauce
Venison and summer veg casserole with roast Mediterranean veges and baby potatoes
Home made apple crumble with Scottish honeycomb Ice cream

They weren't able for the four Scottish Cheeses and oatcakes but they managed another 'wee dram'
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Feel free to try - they're delicious - especially with a nice whisky sauce.  Just filo pastry squares about 3 inch, heaped teaspoon raw haggis, fold corners into middle.  I did garlic ones separately and they're fine too.  Cook at preheated 200 for about 10/12 mins

It's really hard these days to find nice haggis.

I used Halls, to be honest I don't know if it would make a lot of difference provided it was a reasonable one.  The whisky sauce does change the flavour slightly.  MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm - glad I've still got some in the freezer yum yum

Best Haggis we've ever had was McSween's vegetarian (although a bit high on salt)! Second best made with lamb by the Newburgh butcher who sadly closed down last year. Worst is definitely Lids, yuk! Don't even want to know what's in it...:&>

I like Ramsays haggis, they also do a really good black pudding which may contain some of my pigs blood when they ae slaughtered, making it more tasty!!!!
